Q: idle problem - andrius7 - 10-01-2014
Hi to everyone

hi and welcome! Just a quick search on google and your fault code seems to be related to the O2 sensor or the catalytic converter, or maybe an exhaust leak, try searching for a leak in your exhaust system pre-cat maybe that's the problem

but do this obd code can influence bad idle?

The cat is stock or sport (100 or 200 cells) ?
P0420 mean inefficient catalyst. this error is given by the second o2 sensor.
Slim
